Not Guilty

I just love this song by Mandisa. It is amazing to know that God did pay that price. He does indeed love us and want us.

Not GuiltyMandisa

I stand accusedThere’s a list a mile long of all my sinsOf everything that I’ve done wrongI’m so ashamedThere’s nowhere left for me to hideThis is the day I must answer for my life

My fate is in the judge’s handsBut then he turns to me and says

I know youI love youI gave My life to save youLove paid the price for mercyMy verdict: Not Guilty!

How can it be?I can’t begin to comprehendWhat kind of grace would take the place for all my sinI stand in awe now that I’ve been set freeAnd the tears well upAs I look at that cross‘Cuz it should’ve been me

My fate was in the nail scarred handsHe stretched them out for me and said

I know youI love youI gave My life to save youLove paid the price for mercyMy verdict: Not Guilty!

I’m falling on my knees to thank YouWith everything I am I’ll praise YouSo grateful for the words I heard You say

I know youI love youI gave My lifeI know youI love youI gave My life to save youLove paid the price for mercyMy verdict: Not guilty

About Me

I am a Christian and love the Lord. I strive every day to learn more and follow HIS will, not my own. I have the best family around. We have this miniature schnauzer, Gracie, who is spoiled ROTTEN. I love to cook, knit, play the piano, take tons of pictures, scrapbook, read, and journal. I am a Wisconsin country girl at heart, but moved to Texas a few years ago. I'm a recent college graduate simply loving life and ready to take on the world!

What I don't love...

thunderstorms, cigarettes, people who drive way under the speed limit, mayo, people I love who don't know Jesus, mosquitoes and bees, judgemental people, early early mornings, hot weather, long lines, shopping, alcohol, roller coasters, losing touch with good friends, tomatoes, swearing, being far away, immodesty, or liars.
